In the financial period ending 31 March 2025 our main activities were: **1** . The Riddell Initiative: a programme of mental health awareness and suicide prevention training for professionals working in the financial services sector. **2** . Giving grants to other charities that work to reduce deaths by suicide and/or improve the mental health and wellbeing of young people. The trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in deciding what charitable activities the charity should undertake. **Small Grants:** The trustees made discretionary grants of between £5,000 and £25,000 where they believed that their contribution would make a real difference to suicide awareness or mental health and well-being. Applications were only accepted from charities registered in the United Kingdom, with applications from smaller charities particularly encouraged. Applications must be for charitable purposes that fall into one of the categories below: - Programmes and activities that aim to support, maintain and improve the mental health and well-being of young people (from 10 to 23 years old). - Suicide awareness and support programmes. Priority is given to innovative projects. **Large Grants:** Are made at the instigation of the trustees to fund charities which the trustees believe will directly impact our mission to lower the number of deaths by suicide. ## **Contribution made by Volunteers** A number of professionals in the financial services sector advocate and fundraise for us. ## **Achievements and Performance** ## **Summary of the Main Achievements** In the financial period ending 31 March 2025 our main achievements were: **1** . The Riddell Initiative - We continued our partnership with West Central London MIND for phase 1 of The Riddell Initiative, which consisted of a 1-hour seminar on Suicide Awareness and Prevention. We also partnered with Grassroots Suicide Prevention to develop two further courses (a 2-2.5 hour Managing for Mental Health course and a 1-hour seminar for senior managers emphasising the benefits of promoting a healthy approach to mental health awareness in the workplace. Over 250 people, mainly from debt restructuring and associated industries, attended these workshops **2** . Small Grants - £208,560 of grants were awarded to 29 charities that work to reduce deaths by suicide and/or improve the mental health and wellbeing of young people. **3** . Large Grants – a £200,000 2-year grant was made to Grassroots Suicide Prevention to support the development of their Stay Alive app. A £252,000 3-year grant starting in 24-25 was awarded to Men’s Minds Matter to fund salary costs. A £131,250 3-year core funding grant was made to the Be Free Campaign. A £500,000 5-year project grant was made to James’ Place to support the development of a new centre in Birmingham. ## **Financial Review** Income for the year was £957,791. Expenditure was £986,286, of which £818,660 related to grant awards and £34.750 was for the Riddell Initiative. £100,250 of income recognised in the year was received in the 21-22 financial period. 4 DAVID RIDDELL MEMORIAL CIO (Chafitable Ir￿rpO1aled Organifationl TRUSTEES.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES** ## **Basis of Preparation & Assessment of Going Concern** ## **Basis of Preparation** The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2015) (Second Edition, effective 1st January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) and the Charities Act 2011. The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. ## **Assessment of Going Concern** Preparation of the accounts is on a going concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ## **Incoming Resources** ## _**Recognition of Incoming Resources**_ These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when: ▪ the charity becomes entitled to the resources; ▪ the trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and ▪ the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability ## _**Incoming Resources with Related Expenditure**_ Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resource and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA. ## _**Grants and Donations**_ Grants and Donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. ## _**Tax Reclaims on Donations and Gifts**_ Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate. ## _**Contractual Income and Performance Related Grants**_ This is only included in the SOFA once the related goods or services has been delivered. ## _**Gifts in Kind**_ Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as incoming resources when receivable. ## _**Donated Services and Facilities**_ These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received. ## _**Volunteer Help**_ The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts. ## _**Investment Income**_ This is included in the accounts when receivable. ## _**Investment Gains and Losses**_ This included any gain or loss on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 9 ## **DAVID RIDDELL MEMORIAL CIO** (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025** ## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** ## **Expenditure and Liabilities** ## _**Liability Recognition**_ Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources. ## _**Governance Costs**_ Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of the trustees meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters. ## _**Grants with Performance Conditions**_ Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SOFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. ## _**Grants Payable without Performance Conditions**_ These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to a grant which remain in control of the charity. ## _**Investments**_ Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange are valued at market value at the year end. Other investment assets are included at trustees' best estimate of market value. ## _**Unrestricted Funds**_ These funds can be used for the general objectives of the charity as set out in the trustees report. The movements of the unrestricted funds are given in the Statement of Financial Activities. ## _**Restricted Funds**_ These funds are where the donor has specified a purpose for the donation made. These restrictions often arise as a result of appeals for special offerings for specific purposes. ## _**Designated Funds**_ These funds are funds set aside by the trustees out of unrestricted general funds for particular purposes or projects. ## _**Fixed Assets**_ Fixed Assets are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year and cost at least £2,500. They are valued at cost or, if gifted, at the value to the charity on receipt. ## _**Depreciation Expense**_ Depreciation is calculated at a rate to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets over their estimated useful lives. The rates applied are as follows: Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment 25% - Reducing Balance Basis ## **2. TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS** The CIO held no tangible fixed assets during this or the previous financial year. The annual commitments under non-cancelling operating leases and capital commitments are as follows: 31st March 2025 : None 31st March 2024 : None 10 ## **DAVID RIDDELL MEMORIAL CIO** (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025** ## **3.

STAFF COSTS AND NUMBERS** The Charity employed no members of staff during this or the previous financial year. ## **15. PAYMENTS TO TRUSTEES AND OTHER RELATED PARTIES** During the financial period the David Riddell Memorial CIO made charitable grants of £15,000 (2023/24:£15,000) to Didcot TRAIN - Inspiring Young People (Registered Charity Number 1176258) to assist with the rental costs in furthering the Charity's objects. Trustee Nicole Guest is also a Trustee of Didcot TRAIN - Inspiring Young People (Registered Charity Number 1176258) and all conflicts of interest have been identified, documented and managed in accordance with the Charity's Governing Document. No other payments were made to trustees or any persons connected with them during this financial period. No other material transaction took place between the organisation and a trustee or any person connected with them. ## **16. RISK ASSESSMENT** The Trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated, combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems carried out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The Trustees have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks. ## **17. RESERVES POLICY** The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the CIO's needs. This is based on the CIO's size and the level of financial commitments held. The Trustees aim to ensure the CIO will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The Trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily. ## **18. PUBLIC BENEFIT** The CIO acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or ‘aims’ that are for the public benefit. Details of how the CIO has achieved this are provided in the Trustees report. The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit before deciding what activities the CIO should undertake. 17 ## **DAVID RIDDELL MEMORIAL CIO** (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS** Report to the trustees/ members of the David Riddell Memorial CIO on the accounts for the year ended 31st March 2025 set out on pages 6 to 17. ## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The trustees are satisfied that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the governing document or constitution of the Charity for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act; b) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and; c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales in relation to the conducting of an independent examination, referred to above. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and of the accounting systems employed by the Charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of the Charities legislation and that the financial statements comply with the SORP, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below. I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtain written assurances from the trustees of all material matters. ## **Independent examiner's statement** The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Accounting Technicians. In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
